Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of nifedipine on brain edema and neurological function in patients with cerebral hemorrhage . Methods 72 patients with ICH from October 2013 to October 2015 in our hospital were selected, and randomly divided into experimental group and control group, 36 cases in each group.The control group used dehydration to reduce intracranial hypertension, improve cerebral circulation, promote nutritional metabolism and anti infection and other conventional treatment,and the experimental group daily intravenous infusion of 1.0 mg of nifedipine on the basis of control group, a course of ten days.The activity dependence, clinical efficacy, MESS score, ICH score, BI score, brain hematoma and brain edema volume were observed and compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results After treatment, the activity dependence of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group ( P <0.05 );the clinical effective rate of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05).BI scores of both groups were increased after treatment, MESS scores were reduced(P<0.05);The BI score of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05),and the MESS score was significantly lower than that of the control group (P <0.05).The volume of cerebral hematoma and the volume of cerebral edema were significantly reduced after treatment in both groups (P<0.05),there was no significant difference in the volume of cerebral hematoma between two groups,there was significant difference in the volume of cerebral edema between two groups (P <0.05).Conclusion Nifedipine can effectively reduce cerebral edema in patients with cerebral hemorrhage, reduce the degree of neurological deficit, improve clinical efficacy.
